Should cruise ships be regulated better, or is their overall safety record still good?

“A month after a Carnival cruise ship was stranded for five days in the Gulf of Mexico, another of its cruise ships is reporting equipment problems in the Caribbean.

” … In a status update on its Facebook page, Carnival noted there were brief interruptions to elevators and toilets Wednesday night. The ship has full power but engineers are working on a ‘technical issue.’ The cruise ship, which has a capacity of 3,646 passengers, is docked at Phillipsburg in St. Maarten.”

Whaddya think?

— Is it time to crack down on the industry, or are these isolated problems?
